Post by: ACM on November 03, 2016, 01:03:24 AM
"Eurofora" Invited by New York "Columbia University" on New US President's DIGITAL Agenda 2017-2022

Visionary N.Y. Columbia University Professor and Director of its Institute for Tele-Information, Elie Noam, who has focused also on Media, (f.ex., his landmark  : "Bad News for News" at Financial Times, since 2005), for a "Federated Internet" (2014), etc., has just Invited "Eurofora"s co-Founder to an Interesting forthcoming Event, organized on November 10 at New York, about the Future Agenda of the New US President (who will have been elected 2 Days earlier) on a series of Topical DIGITAL Technologies, Economy, Society and Political Issues, for the crucial Period of 2017-2022.

Among many other, well known, "Big Issues", about the Web, Phones, Networks, Freedom, Privacy, Regulation, Media etc., it will obviously be Topicaly Interesting to take a Fresh and Deeper View f.ex. also on the projected ATT - Times Warner merger of Big Networks and Big Media, just after that of Comcast, etc, (where the 2 current US Presidential Candidates have Differend Opinions), as well as on the recently Growing Attempts for a one kind, or another of some Global Regulation, or not, of the Internet, both in Europe and in the USA, as well as on a UNO related Dimension, (on condition, naturaly, that it doesn't break down earlier in largely separated entities, but keeps, at least, a quasi-Federal basic Structure, almost as Elie Noam and others advocated: Comp. Supra).

That might also be of interest to several among "Eurofora"s Readers, (since the N.Y. event will be also on-line on Next Thursday, at 12:00pm-2:00pm EST).
